Thanks a lot... gonna look into it.

I would appreciate if someone provides some info

Thank you

Hello,

Would you please mention if there is an option for auto posting using RSS feed in WoltLab CMS (not the forum) ?

I searched a lot and unfortunately it seems that this option is only available for the forum.

I believe it should be a must that we have this feature for the CMS as well.

Best,

Al

Thanks a lot everyone...

I do not have many extensions and I just needed the front end to be in two languages. Unfortunately the reinstallation is not an option for me and I have so much to do at this time of the year and I can not afford it (time-wise).

I imported the language I did a little check back and forth and it seems to be fine. My forum is not extremely customized so I hope I am not going to have many issues.

Only one question... I have customized one of the phrases which related to the activation of the account. I removed the activation link and only kept the activation code which the user should manually enter in the forum. The problem is that one part of the email is still in English although I modified the phrase in German.

here it is : wcf.user.register.needActivation.mail.plaintext

Code

Hello,

I would like to have everything simple so I would like to only have one thumbsup button instead of many reaction options. I have done everything but one .. and that is changing the icon from smily to a thumbs up. I used these CSS codes but there has been no differences:

.fa-thumbs-o::before { content: "\f164"; }
.reactButton { content: "\f164"; }

I would appreciate any help

Hello,

I searched a lot and I did not fine my answer. Would you please mention how can I download German from so I can import ?

Thank you very much...

Merry Christmas and happy new year

I just noticed that image resizing is not coming to WoltLab anymore... which is a pity and a shame. Such a great pice of software without a must have option!

Then specially the woltlab articles (core) seems to be useless... I stopped writing articles because of this ...

Quote from Alexander Ebert

Hello,

Image resizing in the editor is not available at this time and we have currently no plans to introduce this feature.

It would be great if we have the possibility of using FAVicons for the like system. There are many good options that can be used from these icons. And also if we have the color it would be even better ...

Dear Alexander Ebert,

What are your thought about this ?

Thank you for your suggestion. I am already using Lexicon on my other website.

I am really happy with it but it is not suitable for my purpose. Lexicon as it comes from the name it is a wiki like KB website. I need something like WP.

But still the Lexicon has the problems which we have with the WL editor and images.

Unfortunately there is no commercial solution.

But believe me the article system is good enough for my purpose...

My argument is why we don’t even have the image-resizer for the forum side!

It is really a problem... specially when a forum grows and when someone would post a huge image it would really destroys the user experience.

A good example would be my post here is this forum:

https://malwaretips.com/thread…-2020-62-discount.100697/

If I would not had been able to resize it, would looked awful as the image is really large.

II really don't know what others are coping with this!!!

Please don't mention using the thumbnails. Because that is not the same. The image size should be respective to the content.

Well that is the main point which I used WoltLab articles because of comment integration. Unfortunately there is no bridge between these two.

And As I mentioned having the image resizing option is also needed in the forum.

It is really a pity because the article system is really good and has most basic features. But the image part id really a pain!!!

I struggled myself a lot with using/not-using WordPress as a main website. Having both articles and forums in the same environment is a huge advantage.

I hope WoltLab staff pay more attention to it.

Having the image resize also in the forums is an advantage too. Because I can not force people to go and use for example photoshop to resize their images!!!

Or I edit their posts or set a global size for images. This functions IS really needed.

I agree... I did not want to compare Woltlab with anything. It was just more of a joke.... WP comes with (classic editor) tinymce which has this option for years.

I just want Woltlab to be better ... I don’t know if you have tried to write an article... if you would like to include some images and make the article user friendly in some cases it is really impossible.

If there is an article system -in my opinion- it should come with needed standard features for writing. If not, so why we have it in the first place?

These small touches (like the visual image resize) makes the writing experience way different.

Than you all for your replies.

Yes, CSS is the only option but the problem is it really cuts the flow when you are writing an article. To go and give a class to your image. It should be automated through the editor. I really do not see any reason not to have it.

We even have it in default WP!

Thank you for your reply,

But I would completely disagree. Because if I use an 400px image as it is, it would look horrible on retina and 4K displays. Even in Xenforo this function exist and make the life way easier. I believe in 2020 it should be a part of all CMSs.

Vielen Dank! .... it is done

Hi

I have been using WoldLab as a forum for about 5 years. No complaints. I always have recommended it to customers or friends.

BUT !

Recently I have started a new website and I am using the combination of the forum and the core (articles). I have to say I have double feelings about it!!!

One part which I hate is images !!!!

There is no option to resize the images ... something like we have in WordPress.. this would be a great addition for the content. not even if I edit the source code and set the "width", it would not work.

I think it would be great if you pay a little more attention to the article side of the suite as well.

(sorry if I have missed something.. I would appreciate if you guide me if I am wrong).

Thank you.
